End-to-End CMMC Compliance for DoD Contractors
Three specialized organizations. One integrated solution. Achieve CMMC Level 2 certification faster, with less disruption, and no infrastructure investment.
Three Paths to Certification. One Clear Winner.
An Organization Seeking Certification (OSC) needs CMMC compliance to compete for DoD contracts — but which path do they take?
Existing Infrastructure
Retrofit your current systems to meet CMMC requirements. Significant capital outlay, long timelines, and high risk of gaps.
Microsoft GCC High
A cloud path, but complex to configure and maintain. Requires deep expertise and additional tooling to satisfy all 110 controls.
StormCloud + CMMCReady Partnership
Security Centric's StormCloud accounts for 90 of the 110 CMMC requirements out of the box. Simpatico covers the remaining 20. Vaultes certifies the result.

From Vulnerability to Certified — Step by Step
A structured, five-phase process that takes you from assessment to certified — in the shortest time possible, with the least disruption to your operations.
Discovery & Gap Analysis
Simpatico conducts a thorough assessment of your current needs and business operations related to your CUI dataflow to determine compatibility with our solution. We default to "No" until we can collectively prove it's a "Yes." Because this isn't just about checking boxes — it's about deploying the right security solution that supports your business processes and positions you for certification.
StormCloud Enclave Onboarding
Your team is onboarded into Security Centric's StormCloud hosted enclave — a pre-built, CMMC-ready environment where 90 of the 110 required controls are already in place at first login. Avoid months of infrastructure build-out with a pre-authorized platform that cuts your CMMC readiness timeline by up to 70%.
Compliance Management & Gap Closure
Simpatico Systems takes over day-to-day management of your compliant environment, implementing policies, managing users, and maintaining the remaining 20 security controls required by CMMC. All 110 requirements are now covered: StormCloud (90) + Simpatico (20).
Official CMMC Level 2 Assessment
Vaultes conducts the official CMMC Level 2 assessment of your StormCloud environment. With Security Centric's pre-built controls and Simpatico's documentation in place, your assessment is streamlined for success. Vaultes evaluates all 110 NIST SP 800-171 practices, submits results to SPRS and eMASS, and provides the certification decision.
Certification & Continuous Compliance
Upon passing the assessment, your certification is recorded with the CMMC AB. Simpatico continues managing compliance while Security Centric ensures StormCloud controls remain effective — maintaining certification year-round. CMMC isn't a one-time checkbox; this is ongoing management built into your 36-month program.

The CMMC mandate is creating a compliance crisis for thousands of defense contractors. This integrated solution was designed to solve exactly that — efficiently, affordably, and thoroughly.
Speed to Certification
StormCloud is pre-authorized with 90 of 110 controls, cutting your CMMC readiness timeline by up to 70%. Avoid months of infrastructure build-out.
